Plaid Cymru is in power. Labour is out for the first time in the history of devolution. And Reform UK is now the official opposition in a dramatically reshaped Senedd.
In this episode of Senedd Sources, Jo Kiernan and Craig Lawton break down the election aftermath, Rhun ap Iorwerth’s first moves as First Minister, and what Plaid’s new cabinet tells us about the direction of the Welsh Government.
From major cabinet appointments to committee battles and minority government maths, this is the inside story of how Wales’ new political era is beginning.
With Plaid Cymru now governing without a majority, how difficult will it be to hold together a new administration while negotiating vote-by-vote in a larger Senedd? And what role will Reform UK play as a powerful new opposition force?
Plus:
- Why Labour faces a huge rebuilding challenge
- The balancing act over farming, energy and net zero
- How committee chairs and Senate numbers could shape Welsh politics for years
